Résumé
The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the current system of supervision in place in the Applied Police Sciences Unit at the RCMP Training Academy and how it compares to the Clinical Supervision Model. The Commanding Officer of the RCMP Training Academy, Depot Division, was contacted
to request permission to interview all five of the training coordinators in the Applied Police Sciences Unit at the Academy. An analysis of the data indicated that there were two themes central to this study. There were inconsistencies within the supervisory system currently in use and there existed a desire for senior management to provide more empowerment to the training coordinators over their work processes. The findings of the study revealed numerous inconsistencies between the training coordinators in regards to the purpose and practice of facilitator supervision.
